Camp News
Each June, approximately 25 children join 42 fabulous volunteers for
a week of magical moments. The campers arrive on Sunday afternoon and after a Med
Shed evaluation, take a tour of the ranch with their parents. After the
Ice Cream Social, with all involved, parent’s goodbyes are said
and our week of fun begins!
The theme of the week is just to have fun, and what fun we
have. From archery to horseback riding to our team-building
activities, to the climbing wall, to the rappelling tower - a lot of magical moments
are
created! And since we have such a small group of campers with many
staff members - the atmosphere is quite "magical".
Our camp food is not typical “camp food.” We have extraordinary
chefs who prepare every meal from scratch! I am talking homemade
sourdough pancakes; yeast rolls; bbq chicken, and, of course, hamburgers
and hotdogs.
There is a Special Guest Party mid-week during camp to honor our major
donors and sponsors. They are treated to an afternoon of fun at the
ranch with
the campers and then an evening of entertainment at the campfire. The
male counselors and campers serenade the guest with the unforgettable
song – “God Bless My Underwear”! What a fun event that is and our
“Special Guests” enjoy
their time spent with our campers!
As you can see, we have an active, packed week of “magical moments.” At
every meal, both campers and volunteers alike shared their “Magical
Moments” while holding “Magic Mike.” Water fights; and
the food are big hits of the week.
Our planning committee is hard at work planning our next annual camp,
and we hope you will be part of the fun!”
